Wow.. I never knew trying to get organized was so HARD. I knew it would take time, but I didn't think it would be this difficult. I guess I was VERY disorganized :(

Wait.. The first step is acceptance.. Right?

Yep!

At least I have made it that far!

Wow, I know i've said this before, but I cannot wait until I am organized.

Still working on printables! Hoping they'll make my life a little easier. :) Right?

I sure hope so!

I made a Grocery List printable that has an area to put what meals we will be eating during the week, plus a place to list what groceries we need to get. This will make sure we get everything (at least almost) we need the FIRST time we go.

It's the little things that count :)

I put it up on the door of my pantry so that it is right there! Easy access, easy to use, awesomeness!

You remember how in an earlier post I said that I was trying to organize my life, well everyone knows what comes along with organizing! Printables! I have been making a few to try and get our schedules organized and planned, and I have a FREE one for you guys!

I laminated mine so that I can write on it with an erasable marker to change it daily. I also was thinking about making 7 of them, one for each day, that way I could go ahead and write them out at the beginning of the week!

There are SO many interesting ideas and crafts out there that inspire each and every one of us! I know I see so many out there daily looking at the blogs that I follow, pinterest or even in stores. I see something that I like and I so want to make it! There's just not enough time to recreate all these awesome ideas, so every Friday I have decided that I will start posting my favorites! I will create a theme and then share what I find with all you guys!*You can find me on Pinterest here*

Today's theme is

Alphabet!!

There are so many things out there created using the alphabet so lets get started sharing!

So I told all you who love to Scrapbook that I had an awesome surprise for you!! Well here it is!! But it's not only for scrapbookers, but anyone!

I was approached by My Memories, a digital scrapbooking website, which, once I started looking around, found it to be awesome! They offered me a copy of their program to try out and to give one away to one of my lucky readers! (Eek! It's my first sponsored giveaway, yay!!)

Not only is My Memories easy to use, but it is also rated #1 by Amazon and Top Ten Reviews! I have always wanted to get into scrapbooking, but I was afraid of adding even more stuff to my "collection"(which my husband secretly HATES, he won't tell me, but I know he does hehe), so when I looked around this website I thought it would be perfect! Everything is digital!

Once I downloaded the program, I began right away! It was just so easy to use that I was able to jump right in. Here are a few pages I created with this program, but the possibilities are pretty much limitless!!

This page I created with a blank page and added my own designs

This one I created with one of their quirky templates, I liked it and all it took was a couple seconds to add in the pictures!

You can even make invitations!!

The possibilities are pretty much endless with this program!

So now for the good part!How to enter!1st (for the mandatory part):-Go to the My Memories website and have a look around! Then come back here and leave a comment letting me know what your favorite pack or layout is.
